I play the steel drum, a beautiful instrument native to Trinidad and Tobago. I’ve played with the Desperados steel band in Trinidad and was a member of One Credit Hour, a steel band in the DFW area, for six years. Here in Seoul, I’m in a reggae funk band and a jazz combo. I also love writing and just finished my first science fiction novel.

Be sure to check out MichelleS’s Matador profile.

Favorite books: Hitchhiker’s Guide, His Dark Materials, Harry Potter, anything by Roald Dahl.

    I just finished “Let My People Go Surfing” by Yvon Chouinard (founder of Patagonia) not too long along. Definitely worth the read.
